A Family Cuddle and Ewan's First Song!

We had a family cuddle in bed tonight. And, as you'd expect with two boys wiggling around in between us, there wasn't much sleep going on! Liam started singing "his song" - Hey Diddle Diddle.

It went something like this:

"Cow jumped over moon. Hiddle Diddle play hiddle diddle, dog laugh and play, spoon and dish ran away, ran away."

Then Ewan got into the mood and they started singing together. Ewan really got into it and was like a little opera singer the way he pursed his lips and put his hands in the air while he hit the high notes. Then he started singing his own song and we all joined in:

"Doo Doo Laaaa, Doo Doo Laaaa" *repeat over and over*

He was so thoughtful and serious while signing it - just gorgeous!

I almost forgot the words (I shouldn't really admit that!!!) and I just called out to Ben asking what the words were. Ewan piped up with "Dooo Dooo Laaaaaaa"!!!

And now he's singing Hey Diddle Diddle too. His version:

"Cooow juuu mooo, cooow aarr mooo, mooo spoo"

Moments like these I hope I never forget......
